5. Fitting the guard hood
Plug the guard hood on the motor head as
illustrated (Figure 3), twist counter-clockwise as
far as the stop (bayonet lock) and fasten with the
supplied screw (C) (Figure 4). IMPORTANT
(figure 3): When you twist the guard hood, make
sure that it sits squarely on the grass trimmer
housing and that the stud (A) on the guard lies to
the right of the stud (B) on the housing.
6. Fitting the handle (only ERT 250)
The handle is fitted as illustrated in Figure 5.
7. Proper use
The trimmer is designed for cutting lawns and small
areas of grass in private and hobby gardens. Tools
for private and hobby gardens are not suitable for
use in public facilities, parks and sport centers, along
roadways, on farms or in the forestry sector. For the
tool to be used properly it is imperative to follow the
instructions set out in the manufacturer’s directions
for use.
Important! It is prohibited to use the tool to chop
material for composting because of the potential
danger to persons and property.
8. Starting for the first time and
operation
The grass trimmer is designed only for cutting grass.
A short or worn nylon line will result in poor cutting
performance.
IMPORTANT! Be sure to pull out the
power plug before you adjust the line
length!
The following applies only to the ERT 200:
You will need to exert a certain force to pull out the
line when the trimmer is used for the first time or
when the nylon line is worn. Pull out the line as far as
the edge of the guard hood (Figure 8). In this
connection please refer also to Section 9 „Replacing
the line spool“. The line will be cut to the correct
length the first time the cutting head is started
(Figure 9).
The following applies only to the ERT 250:
You will need to exert a certain force to pull out the
line when the trimmer is used for the first time. To do
so, press on the pushbutton (Figure 10) and pull out
the line as far as the edge of the guard hood. The
line will be cut to the correct length the first time the
cutting head is started (Figure 9). A short or worn
nylon line will result in poor cutting performance. To
restore the correct line length, press the trimmer
against the ground while the cutting head is running.
The length of the line will then be adjusted
automatically (Figure 11).
Your grass trimmer will work at its best if you
observe the following instructions:
Never use the grass trimmer without its safety
devices.
Do not cut grass when it is wet. The best results
are had on dry grass.
Connect the power cable to an extension cable
and hook the extension cable on the handle
(Figure 12).
To activate the grass trimmer, press the On/Off
switch (Figure 1a-1b / Item 3).
To deactivate the grass trimmer, let go of the
On/Off switch (Figure 1a-1b / Item 3).
Do not move the grass trimmer against the grass
until the switch is pressed, i.e. wait until the
trimmer is running.
For the correct cutting action, swing the grass
trimmer to the side as you walk forward, holding
it at an angle of approx. 30° as you do so (see
Figure 13 and Figure 14).
Make several passes to cut long grass shorter
step by step from the top (see Figure 15).
Make full use of the guide hood in order to avoid
unnecessary line wear.
Keep the grass trimmer away from hard objects
in order to avoid unnecessary line wear.
9. Replacing the line spool
Be sure to disconnect the power plug from the
power supply before you replace the line spool!
The following applies only to the ERT 200:
Hold the spool mount tightly and press down the
line spool. Twist the depressed line spool
counter-clockwise until it can be removed (Figure
6).
Replace the empty line spool with a full one. If
necessary, thread the end of the line through the
hole in the side of the spool.
Place the line spool on the spool mount, hold the
